History: Down to Zero
Title of Song: "You Are Not Alone" Date/Year: August 1995 Musician: Michael Jackson Why I like this song:
I like this song because it means a lot to me. I can actually relate to this song. I lost someone that was like a brother to me. He died in August 2008 of cancer. It was a tragic moment in time because he was like my brother. He was there with me ever since birth and was their with me almost my whole life. I thought for a moment my life was ruined. The sad part is that I didn't get a chance to say goodbye to him. Every time I listen to this song, I always think about him. I also like this song because Michael Jackson sings it. I love Michael. R.I.P..
Another day has gone I'm still all alone How could this be You're not here with me You never said goodbye Someone tell me why Did you have to go And leave my world so cold
Everyday I sit and ask myself How did love slip away Something whispers in my ear and says That you are not alone I am here with you Though you're far away I am here to stay
But you are not alone I am here with you Though we're far apart You're always in my heart But you are not alone
'Lone, 'lone Why, 'lone
Just the other night I thought I heard you cry Asking me to come And hold you in my arms I can hear your prayers Your burdens I will bear But first I need your hand Then forever can begin
Everyday I sit and ask myself How did love slip away Something whispers in my ear and says That you are not alone I am here with you Though you're far away I am here to stay
you are not alone I am here with you Though we're far apart You're always in my heart you are not alone
Whisper three words and I'll come runnin' And girl you know that I'll be there I'll be ther
You are not alone I am here with you Though you're far away I am here to stay you are not alone I am here with you Though we're far apart You're always in my heart
you are not alone I am here with you Though you're far away I am here to stay
you are not alone I am here with you Though we're far apart You're always in my heart
For you are not alone... Not alone ohh You are not alone You are not alone Say it again You are not alone You are not alone Not alone, Not alone If you just reach out for me girl In the morning, in the evening Not alone, not alone You and me not alone Oh together together Not not being alone Not not being alone

Another day has gone
I'm still all alone
How could this be
You're not here with me
You never said goodbye
Someone tell me why
Did you have to go
And leave my world so cold
Everyday I sit and ask myself
How did love slip away
Something whispers in my ear and says
That you are not alone
I am here with you
Though you're far away
I am here to stay
But you are not alone
I am here with you
Though we're far apart
You're always in my heart
But you are not alone
'Lone, 'lone
Why, 'lone
Just the other night
I thought I heard you cry
Asking me to come
And hold you in my arms
I can hear your prayers
Your burdens I will bear
But first I need your hand
Then forever can begin
Everyday I sit and ask myself
How did love slip away
Something whispers in my ear and says
That you are not alone
I am here with you
Though you're far away
I am here to stay
you are not alone
I am here with you
Though we're far apart
You're always in my heart
you are not alone
Whisper three words and I'll come runnin'
And girl you know that I'll be there
I'll be ther
You are not alone
I am here with you
Though you're far away
I am here to stay
you are not alone
I am here with you
Though we're far apart
You're always in my heart
you are not alone
I am here with you
Though you're far away
I am here to stay
you are not alone
I am here with you
Though we're far apart
You're always in my heart
For you are not alone...
Not alone ohh
You are not alone
You are not alone
Say it again
You are not alone
You are not alone
Not alone, Not alone
If you just reach out for me girl
In the morning, in the evening
Not alone, not alone
You and me not alone
Oh together together
Not not being alone
Not not being alone
